Aatma

The Aatma.

Conceived, designed and fabricated with one vision. To create an enthralling listening experience for the audience where they embark on an emotional journey that ends in pure bliss.

This loudspeaker uses both unique mechanical and electrical techniques to accomplish a balanced, focused and poised sound that defines the spirit at Reev Designs.

Over a period of 2 years, the Aatma has been designed, from a concept to final product, using both technical creativity and over 100 hours of critical listening tests, ensuring a consistent and precise die is cast to produce the final model.

 

The design.

Aatma loudspeakers are built by hand entirely and given the greatest care in fit and finish. The enclosure employs an optimized geometry to cancel sonic reflections and remain as rigid and anti resonant as possible.

A single craftsman is responsible for the construction of the Aatma from start to finish. The enclosure is caressed in beautiful solid cherry wood ribs that add a unique architectural appeal as well as act as an exoskeleton that adds a significant amount of damping to the enclosure.

The finish on the main enclosure begins with a process of applying a material developed for the luxury furniture market called yorkite. This material is a synthetic material that is applied to all surfaces of the enclosure and prepares a flawless surface for the polyester paints to be applied to. There are 5 coats of finish that are applied to the enclosure before it is buffed and polished to a brilliant high-gloss shine.

The crossover employed was constructed to optimize coherence and provide a path of least resistance for the signal to flow between the amplification components and the drivers. At is point-to-point wired using a layout that reduces interference and interaction between the components. After being assembled and tested it is encased in a proprietary resin that converts the many components into one solid mass that eliminates micro-phonic resonances.

The combination of 50+ hours of craftsmanship results in an astounding, detailed and pure sound reproduced with striking dynamics and balanced tonality.

The speakers are finally packed in a custom built wooden crate and protected using a high-quality foam product.
